Surface Book and Counterstrike: Global Offensive

[Zachary Boddy]

Hey guys I was just curious about something. How well can the Surface Book handle CS:GO? I was thinking that with a dGPU that's basically the equivalent of the Nvidia GeForce GT 940M it could handle it at medium graphics at about 50 frames per second, but then I remembered it only has 1GB of video RAM. Do any of you guys have hands on experience?

I don't know settings of CS:GO. But this guy easily get over 60fps.
Take a look at it: http://youtu.be/DmgZPe4EM90

With geForce experience which choose by himself the best configuration I'm always close to 60fps. I've the model with dgpu, I7 and 8gb of ram and my settings are 2560X1600, high effects, antialiasing, high texture, and anistropic X16 (highest filter). All is smooth and beautiful, incomparable to my old vaio duo 13

Well I know CS:GO isn't a demanding game. It's actually amazingly efficient for such a solid looking game. I know the Surface Book could play it, but I was wondering how well. I guess I got my answer haha.
